Red Door Lakeland

We need your help solving a mystery, friends, and we're not jumping to any negative conclusions about what happened. Perhaps whomever took our sign (the metal one pictured below) incorrectly assumed we didn’t want it, but we would very much like it back. If you know something, please message us here. If you *accidentally* took the sign - or thought you were doing us a favor by removing it - please return it asap, no questions asked.

We appreciate the outpouring of community support we've received in the past few days. Thank you LkldNow for sharing this part of the journey.

'It Was Time,' Red Door Owner Says About Closure - LkldNow The fine dining establishment shuttered Tuesday, after being a staple of the Lakeland foodie scene for 15 years.

Red Door no more….
It’s been a pleasure to serve Lakeland for the past 15 years! The Red Door has allowed us to truly experience everything that makes Lakeland the best place to call home. Being involved with community organizations, networking with community leaders, and getting to know so many of you and your families has been a blessing.

While we will miss serving our community, we can’t help but think of all the great people we’ve had the privilege of working with: our longest tenured employee, Stefan Dolbashian (11 years!), Chef Jason Boniface, who set our culinary direction, and Chef Lucy Cortez-Castaneda who took everything to another level. With Will, Eleora, my own sons Ethan and Henry, Josh Bell, Ella, Quintin, David, Baden, Aiden, and Anthony – just to name a few – we’ve had a very colorful and vibrant extended family.

For all of this we are grateful.
